Rapunzel.
2
Once upon a time in a valley full of colorful flowers, behind the mountains there lived a couple who loved each other very much.
3
Their greatest dream was to one day be able to hold their own child.
4
One spring morning, when the woman found out she was pregnant, she ran to her husband and said joyfully,
5
joyfully, it's a miracle, we're going to have a baby.
6
With this news, they became even happier.
7
During the first months of pregnancy, the woman craved the crispy lettuce from the neighbor's garden.
8
Her husband was a little hesitant at first because this garden didn't belong to just anyone.
9
It was the garden of the witch Camilla, whom everyone in the valley feared and no one dared to approach.
10
Camilla was such an evil witch that she looked down on everyone except herself and never mingled with people.
11
She only lived in her shabby house filled with golden items.
12
She had a golden chair and a golden mirror.
13
and her dinnerware was made of gold.
14
One midnight, the man with great courage secretly entered Camilla's field and picked some lettuce to make his wife happy.
15
Just as he was about to leave without getting caught, the witch Camilla suddenly appeared.
16
You, how dare you enter my garden, she yelled.
17
She told the man to drop the lettuce immediately.
18
The man, terrified, knelt down and said, Please, forgive me.
19
My wife is pregnant and she really wanted this lettuce.
20
I just wanted to make her happy.
21
Hearing this, Camilla made him an offer.
22
She said he could take the lettuce gladly, but in return, if their child's hair turned golden like the sun,
23
they would have to give the child to the witch.
24
The man shook his head in shock because he had no choice but to accept the offer.
25
Months passed and the happy couple had a beautiful baby girl.
26
Her eyes were as blue as the sky and her hair really shone like gold.
27
When the parents looked at their newborn baby, they remembered their agreement with the witch and felt great sorrow.
28
Soon after, the wicked witch Camilla took the baby from her parents arms.
29
She named her Rapunzel and locked her in a tall tower.
30
She had built herself with no stairs, no doors, just a small window.
31
The tower was hidden deep in the forest, in a place so secret that no one could easily find it.
32
Rapunzel lived in the tower for many years.
33
She took her first steps in that tower.
34
She took her first smile there, said her first word there.
35
She made her first drawing there again in that tower.
36
And in that very tower she grew up to be a beautiful young girl.
37
Rapunzel, who grew up thinking Camilla was her mother, mother tried to understand the world by peeking through the tiny window.
38
But since she couldn't run among flowers in the forest,
39
meet animals, make friends, or watch sunsets,
40
in short, since she had never seen the outside world, she didn't even know what freedom meant.
41
Rapunzel's golden hair had grown extraordinarily long over the years.
42
Camilla, on the other hand,
43
would collect Rapunzel's fallen strands of hair and melt them in her magical cauldron to turn them into gold.
44
This way, she could fill every corner of her house with gold, endlessly feeding her greed.
45
That's why the witch never allowed Rapunzel to cut her hair.
46
In fact, she used Rapunzel's hair not only to make gold, but also to climb the tower whenever she wanted to visit her.
47
When she called Rapunzel, let down your golden hair, I have come.
48
Rapunzel would let her hair down like a rope, and the witch would climb up.
49
Whenever the witch visited, she would scare Rapunzel about the outside world, saying there were terrible monsters, and that she was keeping her safe in the tower.
50
Rapunzel, feeling helpless, believed everything the witch said.
51
and was very scared of the outside world.
52
One day a handsome prince from a distant kingdom went hunting in the forest.
53
Suddenly, he heard a song blending with the wind.
54
The sound was so beautiful that he walked towards it, wanting to see the owner of the voice.
55
Eventually he came upon the massive stone tower where Rapunzel was imprisoned.
56
Looking closely, he saw a beautiful young girl with golden hair singing through the tiny window.
57
He was both amazed by her and curious about who she was and why she was there.
58
Though he looked around, he couldn't figure out how to climb the tower.
59
For this tower had neither a door nor a staircase.
60
Just then, the prince noticed the wicked witch, Camilla, approaching and hid in the bushes.
61
The witch shouted, Rapunzel, let down your golden hair, I have come.
62
And Rapunzel let her long hair fall from the tower window.
63
As usual, the witch climbed up, using Rapunzel's hair.
64
Seeing all this, the prince came up with a plan.
65
The next day after Camilla left, the prince approached the tower and called out to Rapunzel, imitating the witch's voice.
66
Rapunzel, let down your golden hair, I have come.
67
When Rapunzel let her hair down, the prince held onto it and climbed up to the tower window.
68
Rapunzel, seeing this prince she had never seen before, was very scared. Who are you?
69
What are you doing here?
70
How did you get here?
71
She said in great panic.
72
The prince calmly replied, I climbed up your hair.
73
Don't worry, I will never harm you.
74
On the contrary, I came here to help you.
75
He told her about the outside world, the scent of spring, the warmth of summer, the joy of the cute animals in the forest,
76
the traces left by the sun in the sky, the flapping of the bird's wings.
77
What freedom feels like.
78
Rapunzel was talking to someone in a true sense for the first time.
79
She had always been very curious about the world she had never seen.
80
That's why the prince's words touched her heart.
81
The prince offered to help her escape the tower and be free together.
82
Rapunzel was so happy with this offer, she accepted immediately.
83
Every time the prince visited Rapunzel, he brought with him short pieces of fabric.
84
After a few days, they made a long rope together from threads.
85
Then, on the last day they finished the rope, they noticed that Camilla was coming.
86
The prince quickly hid somewhere.
87
Rapunzel let her hair down one last time for the witch to climb.
88
The witch climbed so slowly that Rapunzel felt pain.
89
As soon as the witch entered, she started brushing Rapunzel's hair.
90
As Rapunzel's hair was being brushed, she felt pain and unknowingly said, The prince climbs faster than you.
91
Also, he brushes my hair without causing any pain.
92
Hearing this, the witch Camilla went mad.
93
Did you let someone else into the tower besides me?
94
She yelled angrily.
95
Rapunzel didn't know what to do.
96
The witch kept saying she had been betrayed.
97
Rapunzel felt helpless.
98
The witch grabbed a pair of scissors and cut Rapunzel's hair.
99
The prince who had witnessed this moment came out from his hiding place.
100
He grabbed the scissors from the witch's hand and threw them outside.
101
The witch yelled, Who are you?
102
Get out of my tower immediately!
103
The prince shouted at her, You will pay for your evil deeds, witch Camilla, and tied her tightly with the rope they had prepared.
104
Rapunzel, seizing the opportunity, tied the end of her cut hair to a strong spot and called to the prince, We can escape now!
105
Thus the prince and Rapunzel managed to climb down from the tower, holding onto the golden hair for their freedom.
106
They rode for three days and nights as far away from the tower as possible.
107
When they arrived at the prince's kingdom, they told the king and queen everything that had happened.
108
Then the prince's mother mentioned having heard the story of an
109
elderly couple who had been forced to give their baby to the witch and had been deeply saddened.
110
Rapunzel and the prince excitedly went to the home of the elderly couple the queen had mentioned.
111
As soon as the elderly couple opened the door and saw Rapunzel, They recognized her as their only daughter.
112
They embraced her with tears in their eyes.
113
Rapunzel was overjoyed to be reunited with her family.
114
Months later, the prince and Rapunzel were married in a joyful wedding.
115
They lived a very happy life.
116
Meanwhile, the wicked witch Camilla paid for the evil she had done to Rapunzel
117
by being locked in her own tower for the rest of her life, never able to perform magic again.
118
One day, the evil-hearted Queen Hela was admiring her beauty in the magic mirror when she received an unexpected answer.
119
The mirror told her that Snow White was now more beautiful than her.
120
This news drove the Queen mad with rage.
121
Determined to destroy Snow White's beauty, Hela summoned her most trusted hunter.
122
She ordered him to take Snow White into the forest and leave her among the wild beasts.
123
The hunter set off on his journey to carry out the Queen's command.
124
The next morning, Snow White and the hunter went into the forest.
125
Secretly, the hunter scattered bait around to lure the wild beasts.
126
Then he hid himself in a corner.
127
But just at that moment, Snow White found a wounded bird on the ground.
128
She gently picked it up and tended to its wound.
129
Seeing Snow White's kindness and innocence, the hunter couldn't bring himself to harm her.
130
He felt a deep pang of guilt in his heart.
131
Just then, a wild lion appeared in the distance.
132
It was slowly approaching Snow White.
133
The hunter, desperate to save Snow White, shouted, Run, my princess!
134
Run and escape!
135
Upon the hunter's warning, the princess began to run.
136
The lion chased after her.
137
The hunter managed to stop it.
138
Snow White, on the other hand, had lost her way deep in the forest.
139
With a flicker of hope in her heart, she wandered through the darkness, searching for a place to go.
140
When the hunter returned to the queen and said, Your command has been fulfilled, my queen, the queen burst into a triumphant laugh.
141
She was now certain that she was the only beautiful one in the world.
142
However as Snow White continued wandering through the forest, she eventually came across the most charming little house.
143
This house had tiny windows, a little door, and a charming little garden.
144
The princess knocked on the door but no one answered.
145
When the princess gently pushed the door with her hand, it creaked open on its own.
146
The princess hesitantly stepped inside.
147
The interior of the house was just as wonderful as the outside.
148
The place, decorated with tiny pots, spoons, and plates, enchanted the princess.
149
However she was very tired and hungry.
150
She satisfied her hunger with the food she found on the tiny table.
151
After that she lay down on one of the neatly arranged beds and quickly fell asleep.
152
After a while, the seven dwarfs, who owned the house, left the mine and set off for home, singing merrily along the way.
153
When cheerful, grumpy, curious, shy,
154
clumsy, wise, and sleepy arrived home, they immediately sensed that something was off.
155
One of them discovered Snow White sleeping in one of the beds.
156
At that moment, the princess opened her eyes.
157
At first, she was a little scared, but soon realized that the dwarfs were harmless.
158
The princess began by apologizing for entering their home without permission.
159
Then she told them everything that had happened to her.
160
The dwarfs felt very sorry for her and promised to protect her.
161
But they had one condition.
162
She must never open the door to strangers.
163
Meanwhile, Queen Hela learned from her magic mirror that Snow White was still alive.
164
She became furious and devised a new plan to get rid of her.
165
At the break of dawn, she disguised herself as a rabbit and approached Snow White.
166
Seeing the rabbit injured while watering the flowers in the garden, the princess took it inside, thinking it needed help.
167
Though appearing as a rabbit,
168
Hela transformed back into her true form with a spell and secretly dripped poison onto the pillow before slipping away.
169
Just as the princess was about to lie down for some rest after her garden work, the seven dwarfs arrived home.
170
Overjoyed to see them, the princess went to greet them cheerfully.
171
Together, they spent the evening by the fireplace, dancing and having fun.
172
Later, they all fell asleep in the warm, cozy room heated by the firewood.
173
Thus the poison on the pillow vanished into nothing.
174
Unaware of all this, the queen once again stood before her magic mirror.
175
She asked, Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?
176
The magic mirror replied, There is my queen.
177
Snow White is more beautiful than you.
178
Unable to believe what she heard, Queen Hela was consumed with rage.
179
She immediately rushed to her spell room to devise a new plan.
180
After all, she was not someone who gave up easily.
181
With a newly brewed potion, she transformed herself into an old woman.
182
She also prepared a basket full of poisonous bright red apples.
183
Then she made her way to the dwarf's house and knocked on the door.
184
When Snow White saw that the visitor was an old woman, she felt sorry for her and opened the door.
185
The old woman handed the princess one of the apples.
186
Snow White took the apple from the witch's hand.
187
Hungrily, she took a big bite.
188
But before she could even finish her bite, the poison took effect.
189
And the princess collapsed to the ground.
190
The old woman let out wicked laughter as she disappeared into the distance.
191
Meanwhile, a handsome prince traveling from distant lands was wandering through the deep forest.
192
Just as he was about to approach her to ask if she needed help, the old woman suddenly transformed back into the evil queen, Hela.
193
At that moment, the seven dwarfs returned home and found Snow White lying lifeless on the ground.
194
They were heartbroken and wept bitterly.
195
Then, they placed the princess in a glass coffin and set it adrift on the kingdom's longest river
196
so that all could see her beauty.
197
As he rode his white horse along the riverbank, the prince noticed the glass coffin floating in a small boat.
198
For a while, he followed the drifting glass coffin on horseback.
199
When he saw the breathtaking beauty of Snow White inside the coffin, His heart began to race.
200
Leaving his horse behind, he leaped into the boat.
201
Believing that the beautiful princess was dead, the prince took out the stardust necklace from his pocket and placed it around her neck.
202
As the prince's tears fell onto Snow White, a miracle happened and she slowly opened her eyes.
203
Through the magic of true love, Snow White came back to life.
204
When she saw the prince in front of her, she thanked him for saving her life.
205
The prince and the princess went to the king and told him everything that had happened.
206
Upon learning what the wicked Queen Hela had done to Snow White, the king banished her from the palace.
207
He shattered her magic mirror and gave the broken pieces to a junk dealer.
208
While the queen suffered in poverty, she finally understood that evil deeds had no reward in life, but it was far too late.
209
Snow White and the prince held a grand wedding that lasted three days and three nights, and they lived happily ever after.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
